  • a broadband transmission or reception system generally does not have excellent sensitivity.
  • the frequency of the oscillating signals provided by this oscillator can vary by about ⁇ 20 ppm.
  • the frequency error on the oscillating signals produced by the local oscillator can be thus about ⁇ 100 kHz.
  • low-pass or bandpass filtering is generally performed directly on the intermediate signals supplied by the mixer unit, this does not allow precise filtering subsequently to have a high-sensitivity receiver.
  • the frequency of the intermediate signals may be outside the frequency bands of narrowband band-pass filters. Under these conditions, all the data or commands of the radiofrequency signals received can not be taken after the demodulation stage, which is a drawback.
